DR. STEFAN RIEF, Head of Competence
Center Workspace Innovation, Fraunhofer IAO
Fraunhofer′s ›Forecast 2030‹ is predicting transformation
not just in industry itself, but also in the way people
work. In the future, companies will have to work to attract
staff; employees are placing more and more importance
on the work-life balance and on flexible working models,
including flexible hours as well as multiple rather than
stationary workspaces.
ODED ISRAELI, Vice President Marketing, Mindspace
Where do we feel most comfortable? At home. This is
why Mindspace, the coworking space provider from
Israel, is busy creating flexible working spaces that are
comfortable and homelike whilst encouraging productivity.
Aided by Design Thinking approaches, the Mindspace
team are continually developing new ideas for the workspace
of the future.
